That is a very concise explanation of what we are seeing IMO. I got on DU this morning and in general discussion I saw so much FEAR. It was huge. Despite the crazies just looking more and more lost, and being defeated on health care reform, they are still getting what they want with their emotional displays, OUR FEAR. Fear is exactly what terrorists want, going back to April 19, the OKla City anniversary (also my wedding anniversary, strange coincidence). The media feeds on spinning fear at every turn, one channel spinning to make the right scared, another spinning to terrify the left. We definitely need for truth to rise to the top, but for the patient to get well the infection may have to show itself in a major way first.

Very good timing on posting this. I was blown away by the fear of the emotionally unhinged people and their perceived power that I saw on DU this morning. I am used to liberals bickering with each other, making fun of the right, supporting progressive goals, but not the hands thrown up in the air fear.
